I mean who Allsopp in our gets bit by a pang when he ... when in the Florida with the huge head of steam ... after his win in South Carolina and then in the first today than there is some ... debate even within the Romney campaign about where they are one of the debate ... it's the end of the stage anymore with new Gingrich because all of the strengths and then you start talking about moon colonies and when people talked about why would you want the kind of moon colony is right now the ... double down on the whole idea moon colonies and when you give it up with the classic ...
